Chapter 1: Welcome to Bouncin' and Behavin'
If you're looking to become a part of our expanding community, take a seat at our table—there's plenty to share!
The latter half of April has been quite eventful. Initially, the month seemed challenging, but I find joy in writing and eagerly anticipate each new topic. However, when setbacks arise, I can become a bit negative—something I'm actively trying to improve. I’m committed to overcoming this tendency.
Eventually, things tend to improve, mainly because I refuse to give up. I explore new approaches, dedicate more time to my projects, and put in significant effort. This strategy has certainly paid off recently, and I couldn't be more excited.
On April 11th, I received my first Boost from Medium, which was a significant milestone after nearly two months of waiting. I had worried I might never receive one, but that anxiety was unnecessary. Even more thrilling was getting a second Boost less than two weeks later on the 24th, followed by a third just two days after that. This last Boost has garnered even more attention than the first two, and I owe a debt of gratitude to Tucker Carlson for that.
The video titled "Do Not FACETIME Talking Ben at 3am at My PB and J House!" showcases the excitement and unpredictability that can accompany our writing endeavors.
Section 1.1: The Value of Recognition
I've learned that not all Boosts are equal in their impact. Nevertheless, I’m thankful for the recognition that has positively influenced my statistics and, more importantly, my mindset. I realize the importance of maintaining a positive outlook even when my stats dip.
The situation usually rights itself in the end.
Subsection 1.1.1: Growth of Bouncin' and Behavin'
Our publication, Bouncin’ and Behavin’ Blogs, is also experiencing a resurgence, with nearly 3,000 followers and over 100 talented Medium writers contributing unique and compelling stories regularly. Our topics span politics, social justice, LGBTQ issues, mental health, humor, and much more. I believe we are one of the most inclusive and diverse publications on Medium, and we all enjoy collaborating together.
Check out these impressive statistics from the past month; I was pleasantly surprised by the results:
With over 250,000 views and nearly 400,000 read-minutes, we’ve been quite productive this month.
Our BBB writing staff has collectively enjoyed over 380,000 read-minutes in the last 30 days. With around 100 active contributors, there's plenty of exposure to go around. If you've been seeking more visibility for your writing, look no further—join us at Bouncin' and Behavin' Blogs. I am a laid-back editor who welcomes you to our team.
All I require is well-crafted submissions. I don’t change writers’ original voices; I just ensure that their work is accurate regarding spelling, grammar, punctuation, and formatting. I recommend using Grammarly, a free tool that helps catch errors as you write.
Section 1.2: The Family Atmosphere at BBB
As the sole editor of BBB, I take pride in the quick turnaround for publishing. Many pieces go live within minutes, usually no longer than a few hours—except when I’m asleep, of course! It’s the first task I tackle each morning before diving into my next blog.
It truly feels like a family at Bouncin' and Behavin' Blogs. We invite anyone interested—whether seasoned writers or newcomers—to join our community. We even have a Discord server where our writers connect, share laughter, and support each other's work. You’d love the camaraderie.
If you wish to join the BBB writing staff, just leave a comment here. It’s that easy! I'll add you to our team, and you can expect a guaranteed read from me as your editor. Plus, you'll gain access to 380,000 read-minutes. While this figure may fluctuate, we consistently perform well at BBB, and we’d love to help you gain more exposure for your blogs.
I look forward to welcoming anyone eager to find a home for their writing. We are on the rise and continuously growing, thanks to the contributions and talents of our writers. Join the BBB family, and let’s thrive together!
